Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

boom!
A dull sound exploded in the air, and Su Xiao and Lin Yi disappeared from the spot almost at the same time.

The Dragon-Slaying Sword in Su Xiao's hand made a whimpering sound in the air, like a winding dragon, slashing across with an indomitable momentum, aiming directly at Lin Yi's neck.

In the arena, even if the contractor is fatally injured, Samsara Paradise will send him out, so Su Xiao is ready to go all out this time.

Lin Yi did not retreat but advanced. With a flick of his wrist, the long sword drew a delicate arc in the air, and the tip of the sword accurately pierced the blade of Zhanlongshan.

With a crisp "ding" sound, the Black and White Rose collided with the Dragon Slash, and sparks flew everywhere.

Su Xiao's pupils shrank, as if he saw something incredible.

However, Su Xiao was a veteran after all. He twisted the handle of the sword and the long sword slid down along the blade and went straight to Lin Yi's wrist.

Lin Yi turned his wrist and used the hilt guard to block the Dragon Slash's attack.

Just now, the tip of the Black and White Rose sword hit a small white dot on the blade of the Dragon Slash. Although this small white dot did not seem to have a serious impact on the blade of the Dragon Slash on the surface, Su Xiao could see that the durability of the Dragon Slash had dropped by 1 point.

You know, the toughness of the Dragon Slash has reached a very amazing level after multiple reinforcements. It seems that Lin Yi’s weapon should have special attack attributes for equipment.

While the two sides were wrestling, Lin Yi exerted force with his feet and turned his body quickly, trying to snatch the Dragon Flash from Su Xiao's hands by turning horizontally.

After Su Xiao felt the power coming from the Dragon Slaying Blade, he realized that if he continued to stalemate like this, it would be extremely disadvantageous to him, so he had to choose to draw his sword and stop.

The Dragon Slash is a typical Japanese sword style. It is designed to perfectly deal with fierce slashing attacks, but it is more difficult to deal with this kind of lateral force.

If Su Xiao and Lin Yi continued to wrestle with the blade of the Dragon Slash, such a situation would be very likely to occur.

Lin Yi's black and white rose handle will be cut off by Su Xiao's Dragon Slash, but at the same time, the blade of the Dragon Slash will also bend due to the stalemate and pulling of the power of both sides.

For Su Xiao, the bending of the Dragon Slash Blade is absolutely unacceptable. Once this happens, it will greatly affect Su Xiao's own combat effectiveness and put him in a passive situation in the battle.

Seeing Su Xiao retreating, how could Lin Yi miss this great opportunity? He immediately moved forward.

Lin Yi's body strength was transferred to his arms through the rotation of his waist, and the long sword stabbed forward suddenly, aiming directly at Su Xiao's chest.

Su Xiao dodged sideways, but the sword of Black and White Rose still left a long wound on Su Xiao's chest, and blood instantly seeped out of the wound.

After turning around, Su Xiao stomped his left leg hard on the ground, using the force to stabilize his body.

Steadying his body, Su Xiao grasped the hilt of the Dragon Slash with both hands.

A faint trace of blue lightning appeared on the blade of the Dragon-Slaying Sword. The speed of this sword was extremely fast, leaving only a faint afterimage in the air.

The knife light coming towards him made Lin Yi feel as if his neck was gently pricked by a needle tip, causing a slight pain.

He reacted very quickly, threw his right hand suddenly, switched the sword to his left hand, and then held the sword with his backhand, trying to block Su Xiao's attack.

But Su Xiao's attack this time came extremely fast, and Lin Yi blocked it with his left hand.

Although Lin Yi's attainments in swordsmanship do not make a big difference between wielding the sword with his left hand and with his right hand, his left hand is not his dominant hand after all.

In this situation, the Black and White Rose was suppressed by Su Xiao's Dragon Slash.

The sharp sword blade was stuck directly on Lin Yi's left shoulder. Fortunately, Lin Yi used the support of his shoulder bones in time to barely block Su Xiao's attack.

Seeing that Su Xiao was still planning to press on with his victory, Lin Yi made a prompt decision and used a Holy Nova move. The powerful impact instantly knocked Su Xiao back.

The power of the abyss invaded Su Xiao's body. The power of the Blue Steel Shadow in his body felt like it was facing a formidable enemy and began to fight fiercely with this external force.

Su Xiao's body flew backwards uncontrollably. After flying for more than a hundred meters, he finally managed to stabilize his body, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

"Knockback skill?"

Lin Yi shrugged and said nonchalantly: "I can't help it. After all, I'm just a pastor. What pastors fear most is being approached by others."

Hearing Lin Yi's shameless words, Su Xiao didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Are you afraid of others getting close to you? With the two-handed swordsmanship that Lin Yi just displayed, if Su Xiao had not risked his life and deliberately exposed his flaws to lure Lin Yi to attack, I'm afraid he might not have been able to gain much advantage over Lin Yi.

Lin Yi took a look at the injury on his left shoulder caused by Su Xiao's attack. Under the healing effect of Holy Nova, the wound on Lin Yi's shoulder had healed.

Even if left alone, with Lin Yi's current physical condition, the wound would heal itself in a few hours.

Lin Yi raised his eyes slightly and said, "The warm-up exercise is over, and it's time to start the second stage."

"The chain of life."

"Holy Light Defense."

"The ultimate halo."

"The damage deepens."

"weak."

After Lin Yi methodically applied various buff states to himself, he did not forget to use two curse skills on Su Xiao.

To Lin Yi's great surprise, his curse skill seemed to have no effect on Su Xiao at all.

"Huh? What's going on?"

"What did you do?"

Su Xiao also frowned. He did feel a strange and weird force falling on him just now, but in the next second, this force disappeared abruptly as if it was swept away by a gust of wind.

Lin Yi scratched his head and said puzzledly: "I put two curses on you, didn't you receive any hints?"

Since this was also the first time that Lin Yi used a curse skill, he had no idea what was going on with Su Xiao.

According to common sense, these two curses should have been successfully inflicted on Su Xiao.

At this time, Lin Yi looked at the curse skill panel.

Skill effect: The user can consume 500 points of abyss power to curse enemies within 50 meters in front of him. The duration will vary depending on the opponent's luck, attributes, etc.

Lin Yi suddenly had an idea and figured out the key point.

You must know that in addition to being a hunter in the Samsara Paradise, the most important thing about Su Xiao is his identity as the Shadow of Destruction.

You know, the Shadow of Destruction is a dominant force in the second era of the void.

As the last Shadow of Destruction, Su Xiao naturally inherited the great fortune of the Shadow of Destruction that was like a vast sea of ​​smoke.

In this case, it would be incredible if Lin Yi could curse Su Xiao successfully.

"Okay, now I understand what's going on. I'll talk to you about it after we get off the stage." Lin Yi said helplessly.

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Su Xiao nodded, then slowly raised the blade, slightly bent his left leg, and made a stabbing gesture.

"Breaking the air!"

Su Xiao did not hold back this time. His body was like a flash of lightning, turning into a black line in the air.

As Su Xiao sprinted at high speed, the stones on the stage behind him were pulled by an invisible force, picked up by the wind and flew in all directions in the air.

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, the difference in technical level between the two sides was almost the same, so Su Xiao's attack trajectory naturally could not escape Lin Yi's eyes.

When Su Xiao's Dragon-Slaying Flash attack was about to land, Lin Yi shook his wrist lightly, exerted force with his legs, and at the same time put his right hand against his left chest, assuming a counter-stabbing posture.

"clang!"

This time, the collision between the Black and White Rose and the Dragon-Slaying Flash unleashed an even more violent impact than before.

The powerful impact force was like the ripples that occur when a huge rock is thrown into calm water. It quickly spread out in all directions, and the dust on the ground was blown all over the sky by this force.

In this violent collision, Su Xiao's offensive was actually curbed.

At this moment, the tip of the Black and White Rose sword and the blade of the Dragon Slash were tightly touching each other. The extremely penetrating power of the Black and White Rose collided violently with the sharp blade of the Dragon Slash head on.

As the two sides wrestled, the two weapons seemed to be unable to bear the weight and made a terrifying creaking sound.

Now it is equivalent to a sniper duel. Whoever reveals a flaw first will be instantly seized by the opponent and killed in one shot. This contest does not allow any negligence.

Because Lin Yi had the blessing of the halo, he quickly gained the upper hand in terms of strength and successfully suppressed Su Xiao. As Su Xiao's blade was pressed to his chest, Lin Yi immediately understood that a great opportunity had come.

At this time, Lin Yi's posture was with his left leg in front and his right leg behind as a strong support.

He pressed down suddenly, and the powerful force forced Su Xiao to take a step back, which gave Lin Yi some space to make a move.

Lin Yi's right leg began to gather strength, and he kicked sideways straight towards Su Xiao's waist.

Su Xiao naturally did not dare to take it lightly, and quickly put up a counterattack shield with 300 mana points in the place where Lin Yi's attack was about to come.

But unfortunately, Su Xiao's counterattack shield was kicked away by Lin Yi.

The next second, Lin Yi's right foot hit Su Xiao's waist squarely.

Lin Yi's side kick was not an ordinary side kick.

With the blessing of the ultimate halo, plus the additional effects of the melee master's point-to-point and critical strike, it was a piece of cake to kick Su Xiao's mana shield apart with one kick.

After being kicked, Su Xiao rolled twice in the air and hit the protective shield hard before he stopped.

At the moment of landing, Su Xiao gritted his teeth, forced himself to turn around and kneel on one knee, finally stabilizing his body.

As soon as he landed, a large amount of blood gushed out of his mouth.

In the blood, many blood clots could be vaguely seen. These blood clots were the kidney tissues that were shattered by Lin Yi's kick just now.

Su Xiao really didn't expect that Lin Yi had such a skill.

"Master of close combat?"

Lidya Su struggled to stand up, and his cheeks couldn’t help twitching.

At this moment, he felt as if his waist was broken. Even the slightest movement would cause piercing pain.

For melee professionals, the most important thing is to achieve unity of waist and horse, and to exert force through the coordination of waist and legs.

Lin Yi's attack this time directly destroyed half of Su Xiao's attack methods, which had a great impact on his combat ability.

Lin Yi spread his hands and said calmly: "I am a priest, and I know some melee skills. This is reasonable, right?"

Su Xiao stared closely at Lin Yi, who was calm and composed in the distance without even taking a breath, and felt more and more that this guy was really difficult to deal with.

If the two sides were only relying on pure technical abilities to compete, then Su Xiao would indeed have a certain advantage.

After all, Su Xiao's combat effectiveness is supported by a set of passive skills. With the help of these passive skills, the damage caused by each of his swords is indeed stronger than Lin Yi's.

But Lin Yi doesn't just follow the technical path, his main job is a priest.

For a priest, if he doesn't give himself two buff states, can he still be called a priest?

So when Lin Yi got the buff, Su Xiao immediately fell into a disadvantage.

What surprised Su Xiao was that Lin Yi actually had the spare money to develop a close combat master, and it seemed that the level of this skill was not low, at least it had been upgraded to around level 20 or 30.

Su Xiao himself obtained the skill scroll of [Melee Combat Expertise Lv.25] through Mahapuchise in the Hunter World, so he knew the ins and outs of it very well.

He was sure that if Lin Yi's kick just now was specialized in close combat, he would definitely not be able to break his mana shield. Only a master of close combat could do that.

"Be careful."

Lin Yi stepped forward, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and appeared in front of Su Xiao at an extremely fast speed.

When he was only 3 meters away from Su Xiao, Lin Yi shook his wrist and stabbed Su Xiao with the sword from top to bottom.

Su Xiao gritted his teeth and held the long sword tightly in both hands to fight back.

When the Black and White Rose and the Dragon Slash collided again, Su Xiao felt as if his arms were hit hard by a heavy hammer, and an irresistible force pressed down on his body.

This force caused Su Xiao to feel a heart-wrenching pain in his waist. Under this severe pain, Su Xiao almost failed to hold the Dragon Slash, and let it slip out of his hand.

Lin Yi took advantage of the victory and pursued, not giving Su Xiao any chance to breathe.

Su Xiao could only raise his long sword to defend himself in a hurry. His feet made a harsh sound as they rubbed against the ground, leaving two deep grooves.

Lin Yi's attack was like a surging tide, one wave after another, continuously and completely suppressing Su Xiao's edge, putting Su Xiao into an unprecedented predicament.

At this critical moment, Su Xiao suddenly took a deep breath. When Lin Yi's sword stabbed at him again, he did not choose to retreat, but instead suddenly leaned forward.

This sideways movement caused Lin Yi's sword to pierce Su Xiao's left shoulder. At the moment when the black and white rose sword pierced Su Xiao's body, Su Xiao used all his strength and slashed at Lin Yi in an almost crazy manner.

Lin Yi never expected that the opponent would choose such an extreme tactic of exchanging injuries for injuries.

According to the current situation, his next sword would indeed be able to pierce Su Xiao's heart, but this also meant that he would have to pay a heavy price and would be cut in half by Su Xiao's sword.

Lin Yi hurriedly tried to pull back his sword to block, but it was too late.

With a "puff" sound, the Dragon-Slaying Sword slashed Lin Yi's body fiercely. The blade cut Lin Yi's abdomen very smoothly, and the bright red blood immediately splashed out like a fountain.

At the same time, Lin Yi's sword also cut a gash on Su Xiao's chest, and the blood instantly dyed Su Xiao's windbreaker red.

Su Xiao endured the piercing pain and used the powerful impact of the knife to force Lin Yi back several steps.

For a moment, the ring was filled with an extremely strong smell of blood. Both of them were seriously injured, but Su Xiao finally succeeded in resolving the desperate situation that had just been completely suppressed by Lin Yi, and the situation had a glimmer of hope.

Lin Yi's face turned pale as he covered his wound tightly. He said in a weak voice, "Are you fighting for your life? A desperate blow?"

Obviously, Su Xiao's attack really hurt Lin Yi.

"You forget, I am a pastor."

As he spoke, a ray of healing light appeared in Lin Yi's hand.

As this ray of light fell, the hideous wound on Lin Yi's body was healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In less than two seconds, the scar on Lin Yi's wound began to heal and gradually fall off, and the wound that was originally stained with blood had returned to its original state.

Su Xiao remained silent when he saw this scene. He knew that he had lost the bet.

He knew very well how difficult Lin Yi was to deal with, so he had chosen to fight so desperately just now.

But unfortunately, Lin Yi still managed to widen the distance between him and him, which resulted in Su Xiao's attack distance being two crucial centimeters short of cutting Lin Yi in half.

It is precisely these insignificant two centimeters that become the key to determining the outcome of this battle.

"Where is your poisonous milk? Won't you use it on me?" Just when Lin Yi thought that the battle was over and was about to surrender, Su Xiao blurted out these words.

Lin Yi was slightly stunned, and asked doubtfully: "Hmm? Do you want to try the feeling of poisonous milk? That's fine, there is no more suitable place for experimentation than here."

After hearing what Su Xiao said, Lin Yi really thought that Su Xiao wanted to experience the strange feeling of being poisoned, so he turned off the [Destiny Upper Limit] and then cast a healing spell and a chain of life on Su Xiao.

In an instant, Su Xiao only felt that the source of life in his body was expanding wildly at an extremely exaggerated speed.

Su Xiao felt that the kidney that had been badly damaged inside his body began to regenerate under the nourishment of this powerful life force, and the hideous wounds on the surface of his body quickly healed into scars and began to fall off.

Just when Lin Yi was fully expecting that Su Xiao would turn into a big meatball due to the excessive expansion of his life force, he saw Su Xiao suddenly punched himself hard in the chest.

Immediately afterwards, some strange changes seemed to occur in Su Xiao's body, and Lin Yi only felt that his healing power was swallowed up by something mysterious.

Su Xiao let out a long breath, and at this moment the unique characteristics of the Shadow of Destruction gradually emerged in his eyes.

At this moment, the aura emanating from Su Xiao was stronger than ever before.

If the sense of oppression brought by Su Xiao during the previous battle with Lin Yi was 3 or 5, then now this sense of oppression has at least soared to more than 10.

"What did you do?"

Lin Yi frowned. He could clearly sense that there seemed to be a bottomless black hole in Su Xiao's body, which was continuously absorbing the healing power.

"Nothing, I just used the Devouring Core to devour the excess life force." (End of this chapter)
